Inside view

„While you brawl in the Brabus Smart Ready to Race as in a power training at the steering wheel and feet fly over the small pedals, you are incredibely amazed at how much grip the small tires build up.“

„Now matter how sharp the curve, the sport suspension always keeps the body parallel to the ground and the tires stick to the asphalt.“

Press and drivers confirmed the strong performance of the R888R.
We welcome the positive feedback of the editors. For interested readers with German language skills hereby a some of the german articles:

"…lucky for me that my partnership with Toyo means that I drive on a very good performance tire …
... on all temperatures the tire is very consistent which is very important for me when I’m doing that stuff...
…the tire that we use for sliding around on roads like that really works well from the beginning of the wear to where the tire’s almost destroyed... "

"...it truly is a better tire than any of the competitive manufacturers off road tires in all areas that you would need a tire to perform well at, and I know that from experience. You know the proof is here, I’ve won several championships with the tires and I’m the only person to win two consecutive Baha 1000s."
